Re: Exhibit With Human Bodies Debuts in L.A.
 

I did a search for some of the pictures and they are really interesting. I guess if I saw it in person I would be mixed between intrigued and grossed out. The pictures were nothign short of amazing, though.

Here is the police report for the 23 year old women that had sex with her 14 year old student.

I was checking this out and came across "adipocere" which is a natural form of mummification.

From: http://adipocere.homestead.com/introduction.html

"Adipocere is a soapy, waxy, and in some instances, cheese-like substance derived from the fat and soft tissues of a deceased person or animal; it is a by-product of the natural process of decomposition. It may form in semi-moist or very wet environments, hence the relative terms of "dry" and "wet" adipocere."

This is truly sad. And the sister's forgiveness of the boyfriend is amazing. I don't think I could forgive so quickly and easily.

13 Year Old Killed for braid debt
 

Killed for braid debt
'The braids were $100. She didn't pay me, so I sent someone there to do it.'

BY BILL EGBERT MICHELE McPHEEand DAVE GOLDINERDAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS

Tyisha McCoy died over a $100 hairdo.

Stunning reporters and cops alike, a Bronx parolee yesterday admitted ordering the murder of the 13-year-old girl because she refused to pay him for braiding her hair. "The braids were $100. She didn't pay me, so I sent someone there to do it," Kenneth Smith, 24, blurted in response to a Daily News reporter's question outside the 30th Precinct stationhouse in Harlem.

Smith, a paroled armed robber who met Tyisha on a teen phone-chat line, said he sent a pal to the girl's Riverside Drive apartment last week. Smith fingered ex-con Parris France, 22, for strangling the teen and snatching $3,000 of her guardian's jewelry. "I did not do the killing myself. But I saw who did it," said Smith, whose dramatic sidewalk confession could help convict him of murder. "He's upstairs [being questioned]."

Smith, whose hair was done up in immaculate cornrows, was arraigned on murder and burglary charges along with France. Despite Smith's attempt to shift the blame, prosecutors said he told cops he strangled Tyisha with the shoelace from a boot because he feared she could identify him.

The admissions piled more heartache on the custodial family of the teenager, who was born in jail and was removed from her mother's care two years ago over allegations of neglect.

"Pretty sad, isn't it?" said George Thompson, whose mother, Carolyn Thompson, had custody of the girl. "It's a child, for crying out loud." "I'm glad they caught him," added Rhonda Ramseur, Tyisha's mother. Even Smith's sister blasted him, saying news of the crime "ran chills through my body."

"I just want [Tyisha's family] to know that someone in Kenny's family cares," said Shirley Evans, 31, a mother of twin girls who said her brother learned how to braid hair in prison. "I am deeply sorry for what happened." Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly branded the slaying a "terrible crime" that cut short a tormented but promising life. "These are two adult males," he said. "This is a 13-year-old girl."

Cops say Tyisha, who often dated older men, met Smith on a phone-chat line for teens, and he agreed to braid her hair at her apartment. When Carolyn Thompson, a prominent Harlem community activist, saw the older man, she tossed him out of her apartment. "She walked in on him and said, 'What are you doing with her? She is a little girl,'" a police source said. "Words were exchanged, and he menaces her by saying, 'You have a lot of nice [stuff] in here.'"

Cops said McCoy later let France and Smith into the apartment, where they throttled the girl and Smith looted Thompson's baubles. After McCoy's body was found Thursday, cops quickly tracked down Smith, who was sprung in July 2001 after serving seven years for robbery. Sources said that detectives lifted a fingerprint from Thompson's jewelry box that belonged to France, an ex-con with a record of drug offenses, and that France quickly implicated Smith, who in turn blamed his fellow felon.

Re: 13 Year Old Killed for braid debt
 

Soror told me about this over lunch and I was like NOW JUST WTF?!!?!!?!? Thank you for verifying this. She still ain't gonna pay you now. Dumb FFFFer!!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Though now is not the time for blame, this reminds me of another story we had posted a while ago about a crazy boyfriend killing his girlfriend and the same fact rings true: These young girls are being abused by these men and EVERYONE knows, but does nothing until it's too late. At the same time, these girls are having baby after baby for these guys and everyone seems to turn the other cheek.

The "I-don't-want-no-other-man-to-take-care-of-my-kids" excuse for murder and abuse played out a long time ago. Take care of your own damn kids and you won't have to worry about it!!! :mad: :mad: Then they want to kill the KIDS too when they get frustrated. Make me sick....

Man Accused of Hitting Woman With Gator
Florida Man Accused of Hitting Girlfriend With 3-Foot Alligator During Argument

The Associated Press



PORT ORANGE, Fla. July 17, 2004 — A man hit his girlfriend with a 3-foot alligator and threw beer bottles at her during an argument in the couple's mobile home, authorities said.
David Havenner, 41, was scheduled for a bond hearing Saturday on misdemeanor charges of battery and possession of an alligator.

The alligator, which Havenner had been keeping in his bathtub, was turned over to Florida wildlife officials.

Nancy Monico, 39, told investigators that Havenner beat her with his fists, then grabbed the alligator and swung it at her as she tried to escape, sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said. She said the animal hit her at least once. She also told authorities that Havenner threw empty beer bottles at her, Davidson said.

Havenner's version of the story differed. He told investigators that Monico bit his hand because she was upset that they had run out of alcohol.

Why do I think they may have lived in a place that has easily movable homes?

"He just went over the deep end. He probably just loved her too much. He didn't want to see his kids being taken care of by another man."

I am saddened not only by this situation but by this comment from the sister. Dang! I agree that her forgiveness is amazing and somewhat unreal. I don't need nobody loving me this much, then shoot.

Re: the price of beauty..
 

I saw a similar story on TLC this past weekend. It was also in England, so maybe the moral of the story is DON'T TOUCH UP YOUR ROOTS IN ENGLAND.
